    My sweet Luke is now at the Rainbow Bridge with his pal Leroy.

    Turned out he had congestive heart failure and both lungs were filled with fluid. When they tryed to start an iv he went into respitory distress. The vet said they could still try the iv but it would most likely kill him.

    I decided to let him go to the bridge in peace.

    We both thank you for all the prayers and well wishes. I'm sure they kept him going way longer than if there weren't any.

    Oh no, I'm so sorry! I wish this could have had a better outcome. Of course, you know that Luke isn't suffering, is at peace and loves you and thanks you for helping him to the Bridge. Please know that my heart hurts for you and wish I could help in some way other than w/words. RIP, sweet Luke and peace to you, Connie.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    MOFF, although I posted on your other thread, I would like to post here as well.

    There is not a one of us that does not understand your pain and huge loss.

    Oh, yes, Luke lived a long wonderful life with you - but it never seems like enough time for us - we want them to live forever.

    Bless you for giving Luke such a loving home for his "brief" time with you.

    Thanks everyone! It means so much to me having you care for us!

    Phred, thanks so much for letting me know my sweet boy is with his pal, Leroy and enjoying himself.

    I had to go to the vets and pick up the pet carrier this morning. Everyone hugged me and had tears in their eyes, even his vet. They loved my boy too. Knowing that is a comfort too.

    I did find out one more thing; the poor guy had pneumonia on top of everything else. His vet and I are both amazed he was so sick but didn't show it until right at the end.

    Many thanks and love to you all!!!

    Connie, I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet Luke. I really don't
    keep up on the cat side as much as I should & didn't know the suffering
    and sadness you were having. ((Hugs)) Rest In peace now Luke.

    Connie, I just saw this sad news now, and I'm SO sorry. Luke was a such gorgeous boy. I hope it is a comfort that he had a good long life with you, and knew he was loved. You will miss him terribly of course, but in time the pain will be less.

    I'm thinking of you and sending big hugs - please take care!

    Rest in Peace, sweet Luke!

    Connie, I can't begin to tell you how very sorry that I am. Beautiful Luke,
    rest in peace for a while and then run and play hard in excellent health.

    You will be reunited with your human Mom some day.

  13. Oh Connie! I am so very sorry for your lost. Wishing Luke Godspeed and my condolences to you.

    My jaw dropped when I saw the update on this thread.

    HANDSOMEST boy in the world! I am SO SORRY.

    Laura mentioned this before - what is it with our PT babies lately? Puddy, Sades, Luke with the filled lungs and congestive heart failure...and Pidge just made it in the nick of time!

    Did you have a chance to say goodbye? It sounds like it was an emergency situation. But Luke knows how loved he was and what a wonderful home he had for so long...and I know he returned, and returns, that love a hundredfold.
